Do you guys know the best connectors to get for a cat6 configuration? The total cable length is 100FT so its not huge but I have it going strait through with 4 total connectors. I want to wire the middle ones so that they not only give the wall jack to plug into but they also connect the 2 wires together (right now its uncut) so that I don’t have to do this outside the wall and connect a short cable between the 2 to continue the connection (if no switch is needed there).
I was thinking of wiring bundles of wire (16 total wires) into one wall connector. The other though is to strip the plastic off the cable and leave it uncut then just pass it through.
What are you thoughts? or do they sell wall connectors that takes 2 sets of wire to 1 outlet?
Answer
It. Does. Not. Work. That. Way.
Ethernet over Cat5/6/7 is point to point only. It does not work like a telephone line (despite looking similar). Each wire must go only from one device to one other device.
